Christ Jesus, think on us


(one verse introduction)

Christ Jesus, think on us,
and purge away our sin;
from earthborn passions set us free,
and make us pure within.

Christ Jesus, think on us,
with care and woe oppressed;
let us your loving servants be,
and know your promised rest.

Christ Jesus think on us,
amid life's joys and stife;
through every day, through every way,
you are our health and life.

Christ Jesus, think on us,
we would not go astray;
through darkness and perplexity,
point to the heav'nly Way.
